Digital transformation is changing the way almost every organization operates today, even in the educational system. Computers in the exam room have increasingly replaced pen and paper, necessitated by the growth in distance learning and the growing volume of students. Digital exams that candidates can download and complete from any location are quickly overtaking the controlled environment of the exam room in many locations which means that system performance is critical. It’s not acceptable for students if it takes a long time to download the paper and even worse if, having completed the examination, the student is unable to upload it again. This can become a problem with thousands of concurrent students downloading papers.

Join this webinar to hear how six of Denmark’s eight universities led by University of Copenhagen have collaborated to develop a coordinated solution using HPE StormRunner Load to address their testing challenges. Attendees of this webinar will learn how the universities are using StormRunner Load to:

Technical debt is a common challenge which makes rigorously testing evolving applications near impossible. Faced with minimal documentation and no subject matter expertise, the data which goes in and out of a system can be harnessed, using rule-learning to reverse-engineer a functional model complex systems, driving efficient, effective testing.

Whether they are ready for it or not, IT Operations teams have the Internet of Things, including BYOD devices such as smart watches, added to their list of responsibilities. With employees bringing in potentially compromised devices, it's time for enterprise IT to understand their environment and not just tick the compliance box. On the other hand, IoT poses an opportunity for IT organizations to add significant value to the business by providing real-time operational intelligence. A new monitoring approach called wire data analytics analyzes communications on the network to extract valuable IoT security, performance, and even operations data—and requires no agents!

With the emergence of Cloud Computing, people are relying on Cloud for their business which results in faster time to market, leveraging existing systems of records and reduced cost. Based on unique business requirements, we need to find a suitable Cloud offering for our business. For example, you might have an existing OpenEdge application and you want to modernize that application using a Cloud Platform. This session will unveil various types of Cloud platforms and the kinds of business opportunities that can be addressed using them. Sitefinity and DEPaaS (Digital Experience PaaS), Progress Rollbase is an aPaaS (Application PaaS), Modulus based on Node.js is a cPaaS (Control PaaS), DataDirect Cloud is an iPaaS (Integration PaaS) and Telerik AppBuilder is an mPaaS (Mobile PaaS). This talk will help you understand these four kinds of PaaS models and the business opportunities you get through them

As the industry accelerates adoption of DevOps for speed, quality and scale, HPE is evolving their ALM and quality solutions to embrace Agile and DevOps best practices.

A lot of the focus with DevOps is on using new software development technics to develop, build, deploy and run the cloud native applications of the future in an agile way.This will be very important in the next years, but what should companies do with their legacy applications?

In this talk we will discuss how DevOps concepts and technology can be used for existing applications to simplify and accelerate build, deploy and run.

Businesses are extracting value from more data, more sources and at increasingly real-time rates. Spark and HANA are just the beginning. This webcast details existing and emerging solutions for in-memory computing solutions that address this market trend and the disruptions that happen when combining big-data (Petabytes) with in-memory/real-time requirements., It provides an overview and trade-offs of key solutions (Hadoop/Spark, Tachyon, Hana, NoSQL-in-memory, etc) and related infrastructure (DRAM, Nand, 3D-crosspoint, NV-DIMMs, high-speed networking) and discusses the disruption to infrastructure design and operations when "tiered-memory" replaces "tiered storage"

The title ‘Kill DevOps’ refers to an ancient Zen saying about a monk’s journey towards enlightenment and awakening. If you think that you’ve found it, think again, because you never will. It’s the same with DevOps: it’s about continuous experimentation and learning.

DevOps brought Agile’s value proposition closer to the users by speeding up deployment (and more!). Yet no value is realized until the users actually use well-conceived systems well. This is often the weakest link, so we need to extend our reach. The presentation offers a definition of DevOps in terms of cultural norms, technical practices and architecture, referring to the recently published DevOps Handbook. It also covers multidisciplinary collaboration, the relationship between Agile and DevOps, and ‘selling’ DevOps to senior executives.
